car seat to help fall asleep at night
does anyone use the carseat to help their ds fall asleep at night, my friend suggested it and it has worked for the past two nights, we transfer him to the crib after about two hours. i just don't know how practical it is or safe....nothing else works to help him fall asleep except walking him in the carrier for two hours.

I did it sometimes. There were desperate nights I carried him into the house, infant carrier and all, and never took him out!!!

Sleeping at night in the carseat for prolonged periods of time is a SIDS risk.

hmmmm, i really dont know what to do...i don't understand why all of a sudden this has started to happen, at night after his 3am feeding he is able to sleep in the crib/basinett.

Re: car seat to help fall asleep at night
Ok so i took him out of the carseat and put him in the basinett sang to him for about an hour and rubbed his back, he woke up twice during that time and i shoved the paci.... it might have worked he was not as histerical through the whole process as last night, and now he seems to be asleep i just have to feed him at 11 before i go to sleep as the last time he ate was at 6

Re: car seat to help fall asleep at night
How old is DC? Maybe he is hungry? I mean, between 6 and 11 can be a long time for a baby, especially if he is going through a growth spurt

Re: car seat to help fall asleep at night
could it be reflux or gas? I know babies don't like being horizontal then... maybe get one of those wedge sleep positioners

Emerson slept exclusively in her carseat for the first 2 weeks she was home. It was the only way she would stay asleep.
